Meaning & Analysis

Sale Ends was first created in 2006 for Banksy’s iconic American show ‘Barely Legal’, which took place in a warehouse in Los Angeles in September 2006. It features a group of cloaked women rendered in Banksy’s signature black and white stencil style, prostrated beneath a large red sign saying “Sale Ends Today”, which is the central and only coloured element on this print. The image can be interpreted as an ironic statement on the glorified, hegemonic status of capitalism and the market, commenting on the nearly religious nature of sales and of consumer goods worshipped by the masses.

Part of the ‘Barely Legal Print Set’ series, the work was originally made as an edition of 100 unsigned prints and sold at the show for $500 apiece. Further prints in the series included Morons, Applause, Trolleys, Grannies and Festival. This series together is considered to be one of the rarest and most valuable collections of street art on the market.

This unsigned screen print was released as a part of Pictures on Walls’ closing down sale, during which they released a few remaining print editions.

  • Renowned British street artist, Banksy, is the enigmatic figure behind some of the most subversive works in the Urban Art scene. Despite his anonymity, the artists' disruptive stunts have not only gained him notoriety, but they have vocalised his stance on many social and political issues. As seen with the likes of Girl With Balloon and Napalm, Banksy uses his distinctive stencil technique to produce thought-provoking commentaries on challenging themes. The showcase of rebellion that lines his work has caused his secondary market value to soar in recent years, propelling him to the top of the Urban Art scene.
